"Gett Off" is a song written and produced by American musician Prince, released in June 1991 by Paisley Park and Warner Bros. as the lead single from his thirteenth album, Diamonds and Pearls (1991). The album was his first with his backing band the New Power Generation. "Gett Off" was a hit on both sides of the Atlantic, reaching number four in the United Kingdom; the maxi-single was too long and pricey to appear on the UK Singles Chart, so this release was classified as an album, peaking at number 33 on the UK Albums Chart in August 1991.

In the United States, the single reached number 21 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number six on the Billboard Hot R&B Singles chart. In addition, it was Prince's seventh and final song to reach number one on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart. The music video for the song was directed by Randee St. Nicholas. "Gett Off" was ranked at number 97 on VH1's list of the "100 Greatest Songs of the '90s".
